The two casinos I found with shoe games were Casino Zamba and casino Buenavista. They are both located in shopping malls. I scouted extensively, both live and online, but I might have missed a game or two. Taxis in Barranquilla are unmetered but in my experience the cabbies are all honest. American dollars are not accepted anywhere except the 'Cambios' (change) places. The rules are incredible and the penetration is decent. I lost heavily at both casinos. When you split AA, you can split for double. So let's say you bet 20000 COP. Normally you put up another 20000 COP, right? Betting in total 40,000 COP. But in Barranquilla you can put another 20k behind each of your aces, betting 80k in total. That is what I mean by split aces for double. There is a massive language barrier issue, no one speaks English. Also Barranquila is not a great place temperature wise. It's extremely hot and humid. Apparently it is a 2 hour bus ride from Cartagena.
